Test 1: Adapter Board Connected to Filter Board

• Setup: AI Chassis is powered on. Signal is measured directly from the adapter board. All other ports on the adapter board are connected to the filter board.
• Observation: Two distinct spikes observed at the beginning of the measurement.

Test 2: Adapter Board Disconnected from Filter Board

• Setup: AI Chassis remains powered on. Signal is again measured directly from the adapter board. This time, the remaining ports on the adapter board are not connected to the filter board.
• Observation: Multiple spikes observed, distributed evenly across the entire measurement.

Test 3: Isolation Test with Spare Adapter Board (ongoing)

• Setup: Suspecting the original adapter board may be faulty, a spare adapter board is used for comparison. Signal is measured directly from this spare board.

Took the old adapter board out of the AI chassis and and used it to connect DAC to AA chassis. If no spikes are seen, it means that the glitches are not originating from this board.

Also checked al the previous spikes using the raw data (65536 Hz sample rate). The duration of the glitches are ~1 second, despite the previous guess that they are happening in the Milli-second scale.
